Seeing a lot of low scores, I want to say that it is only because everyone has too high expectations for it, which is caused by the psychological gap, but it does not prevent it from being a wonderful and good movie.
Several topics are covered in the video:
1. Parent-child control and anti-control. The control and restraint parents have over their children stems from love, which is essentially a desire to protect their children. Because they want to protect their children from harm, they have the "high wall", and only have all kinds of obstacles to their children's love. However, high walls can never stop children's curiosity and yearning for the outside world. Parents are "bows" and children are "arrows". Only by pulling them apart can the arrows shoot fast and far.
2. The struggle and exploration of "love" and "ideal". Guy has been looking for a "tomorrow", at first he thought "tomorrow" is an ideal home, when he came to the tree house of civilized people, he thought he had found it. At the same time, he discovers that her beloved girl doesn't like his "tomorrow", and he realizes that they are so different. After inner struggle and exploration, he finally realized that the "tomorrow" he wanted was not a place, but a person. The final ending in the film is very perfect. He and Xiaoyi live in a tree house together, but real life may not be so perfect. When love and ideal conflict, you are bound to give up one. At this time, I hope you don't care about worldly opinions and have the courage to follow your heart. The world teaches you to measure the pros and cons, but "love" is not something that can be measured by the pros and cons. That is not true love.
3. The meaning of the existence of the rules. The rule of the civilized family is not to eat bananas. When I first heard this rule, just like Xiao Yi’s father, I thought it was ridiculous. There are so many bananas, why not let them eat? However, existence is reasonable. This rule seems absurd, but it is actually an important force to maintain the lifeline of the family. Since there are rules (implying laws, morals, ethics, etc.), then everyone should follow them carefully, otherwise they will get into trouble.
Ups and downs, wonderful music, warm characters, surprises, touching, and resonance, is a cartoon suitable for "big kids", is it worth watching?
